Latest UFC Betting Odds to Exclude Jon Jones due to Erectile Dysfunction

The latest UFC betting odds won’t feature Jon ‘Bones’ Jones fights as he has been suspended from the sports for a year due to failed drug test. Jones blames the medicine that he took to cure his erectile dysfunction for his positive drug test.

Unfortunately, the latest UFC betting odds will exclude the young star and the last light heavyweight title holder Jon ‘Bones’ Jones fights. According to the latest online UFC news, the successful fighter failed his drug tests which brought a year-long ban to him.

29-year old UFC fighter was provisionally suspended by the USADA as such banned substances as clomiphene and letrozole were found in his blood. Jone’s attorney Howard Jacobs claimed that the banned substances found a way into Jone’s body through a sexual enhancement pill that the young fighter took to cure his erectile dysfunction.

However, this fact doesn’t seem to influence the decision as the authorities think that intake of the banned substances caused due to Jones’ recklessness. Therefore, he will need stay away from the sports for a year which may cost him around $20 million.

Jones Loses His Title Once Again

One-year ban has come as a significant blow for Jones. He not only lost millions but also his interim light heavyweight title. He is no longer the interim 205-pound champion as UFC president Dana White stated.

Only a year ago, Jones was stripped of his official title after he was arrested on a hit-and-run charge. It means he was stripped of his titles twice making him the first ever athlete to be stripped of  a UFC title due to disciplinary reasons along with the first fighter to be stripped twice.
